MOCHI: A Clear, Super-Efficient Material That Could Transform Window Insulation
What is MOCHI and why it matters MOCHI stands for Mesoporous Optically Clear Heat Insulator. Researchers have developed a material that is simultaneously transparent and highly insulating, opening the door to windows that lose far less heat without sacrificing natural light. Unlike traditional insulators and bulky glass upgrades, MOCHI can be manufactured as thick blocks…
